With Daniel Rizzo, Little Big Recordings presents a further promising newcomer from Zurich. For the last two years, he has dedicated himself to his electronic solo project Rizzo, which production is completely based on hardware such as Korg Electribe, ACCESS virus, Akai MPC 1000 and other gear.

With his playful minimal however songwriter-tech-house he is able to please our ears in a beautiful way whether as liveact, or, as this record proves, also as a producer.

Rizzo, with Secondo’s (Dreck Records/London) re-edit of the track Microglyven, gets the support of another Zuricher, Radovan Scasascia, founder of the rising cut-up-and-click label Dreck Records, which is based in London.
